Inspiration: Alexa Chung at Valentino S/S RTW 2012

I know it's already WEEKS since Valentino show at Paris Fashion Week. So, I understand if some of you who (probably) read my blog feel disappointed. Please blame my laziness. I'm a super lazy blogger and I don't deserve any reader.
*How dare you dreaming to be a super fashion blogger.

Thanks to Alexa Chung. She really makes me want to write again. (Sounds like I've known her for years, eh? Hehe..) Though it's a little too late. But hey, inspirations never come too late.

When I first saw Alexa's on Stockholm Streetstyle, I was like "Alexa! (..then) THE SHOES!". Yeah, the things that really really attracted me were the shoes she wore. They're the cutest pair I've ever seen and she styled them so well. Imo, there's no one out there who can pull this look better than her. No doubt.















What she was wearing are a red Valentino dress (I love the bow details on the shoulders), a Valentino oversized rockstud leather clutch, and Charlotte Olympia Kitty embroidered velvet flats (you can buy them here).

Who doesn't agree that Alexa Chung is a true inspiration?
*do not ever say you don't

Finally, my first post after months of hiatus is finished. Hopefully you (if there's someone out there is reading) have a nice weekend. Ta-ta!

Fashion Quotes

I used to be a tomboy girl and made fun of fashion. I thought fashion is stupid. I didn't bother to think what I was gonna wear. Just put any baggy pants and T-shirt whenever wherever. But since I went to college, I realized that I'm a girl (haha!). Then I found sites like lookbook.nu, the sartorialist, style.com, and so many other fashionable sites. 2009. That's the year I started to love fashion. And I found some inspiring quotes from inspiring people that always embrace me until nowadays.

I'd share some of my favorite fashion quotes :)

"One of the traits of highly creative people: an ambition to constantly evolve."

-- Scott Schumann

"Non-models should not try to pose like models. It makes them look ridiculous."

-- Yvan Rodic

"Buy less, choose well, and mix it all."

-- Vivienne Westwood

"No matter what a woman looks like, if she's confident, she's sexy."

-- Coco Chanel

"With expensive fashion, the inside should be as perfect as the outside."

-- Karl Lagerfeld

"Guilty feelings about clothes are totally unnecessary. A lot of people earn their living by making clothes, so you should never feel bad."

-- Karl Lagerfeld

See you later!

Indonesia Open 2011

When did I post my last outfit? I don't know. It's been forever I guess since I updated my outfit post. Haha.. I'm sorry. Things were just hectic and I didn't get the chance to take my picture. Plus, I didn't dress too much these past months.

These below pictures are outfit that I plan to sell. I made an online shop selling secondhand clothes called Coucou Shop. Well, it embraces me to dress up more and it works I guess. :)

Sorry bad pictures :(

Headband: DIY
Shorts: Mom's
Shirts: secondhand

About the title, it's because this afternoon was The Final of Indonesia Open 2011. It's a badminton championship held every year. Like any other badminton championships, of course I would not miss it. If you follow me on twitter, you knew I tweeted tons of words supporting my country to be the champion. Unfortunately, there were no champion coming out from Indonesia. We only got the runner up positions.

What I like the most from watching sports game is you get to see some cute athletes. Haha.. Yes, I have crush on some of badminton players. How can you not like them? They're cute, they're athlete (which means they have athletic body-shape), and they're cute (again). And this year, I found more new athletes crush. Yeaa.. And my biggest crush is for Fu Hai Feng from China since like forever. God, I wish I could be his wife. Haha..

Here are some pics of them.


♥ Fu Hai Feng ♥


Fu Hai Feng with his partner Cai Yun at the final this afternoon. They won! Yay!
Wait, is that his wedding ring?

Left: Lee Yong Dae from South Korea. And he's like 21 years old?

I can mention other cute athletes like Bao Chun Lai (CHN), Chai Biao (CHN), Mohammad Ahsan (IND), Chen Long (CHN), and there are more who I don't know the names. :b

Sorry I bore you with this athlete stuff. Just wanna share. :)

Edie Sedgwick, A Fashion Icon

So, recently I just watched Factory Girl because it was recommended by several websites as one of fashionable movies. And I love it! Well, actually I didn't follow the story.It's.. (what is the right word for it) confusing. And I don't like the parts of Hayden Christensen. His acting was not good. Oh okay okay.. focus.

So I watched the movie only to see the outfits Sienna Miller had. And they were all amazing! Although some scenes were dominated with tights and shirt. From then, I searched about Edie Sedgwick. I feel sorry for her miserable short life. I mean, how come you wasted your life for drugs and things when you were a beautiful and fashionable socialite. When I see the pictures of Edie, it looks like she was happy with her life. Smile is always on her face.

Well, let's recall Edie for her great taste of fashion. And may she rests in peace. I love you, Edie. You're my fashion icon.
